    Just a quick introduction...

    I'm Daniel and I've never owned a truck before. I'm more of a impractical car/bike kind of guy. But this truck will do everything my car can't so I can keep being impractical :D

    It's a 2010, 4x4 with a 6spd manual (wouldn't have it any other way). No options aside from SR5.

    Rode my bike down to pick it up and put the bike in the back. Didn't have to bug any friends to help. I'd like to get hopping on the mods but I believe my girlfriend of 8 years will kill me if I don't go ahead and get her a ring...especially after buying yet another toy.

    Nothing you haven't seen before of course:

    Appreciate the welcome from everyone :)

    Yeah, I heard the thing crunch with the bike on it (just about crapped my pants). Although, my 848 is pretty darn light for a sportbike. About 367 dry, maybe 385-395 wet? I cinched it down with the front suspension compressed a little to pull some weight off the rear tire. No damage that I can see but I've seen images of the ribbing underneath and it needs some reinforcement. I'll have a bike on that tailgate often so I better get to work on that.

    Yep. Don't get on all that often, but I am there. I'm Accel Junky on a TON of forums. Had 25 cars and bikes before this truck so I've been around the block.
